I'm currently facing an issue while trying to implement a guard using the userService to retrieve necessary information. The implementation of the UserService is as follows:
getUserDetails(): Observable<User> {
this.requestUrl = `${configs.bgwssApi}v1/user/details`;
return this.http.get<User>(this.requestUrl).pipe(catchError(this.handleError));
}
isBoardMember(): Observable<boolean> {
this.getUserDetails().pipe(
map(data => {
if (data.userRole !== 'MEMBER') {
return of(false);
}
console.log(data); //Not printed
})
);
return of(true);
}
While the getUserDetails function works correctly by returning the required information, the issue arises with the isBoardMember function always returning true without even checking the userRole. What could possibly be causing this problem? How can I resolve the isBoardMember method so that it returns the accurate value? This is crucial because my guard conducts a verification like the one shown below, which is functioning properly:
canActivate(route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot,
state: RouterStateSnapshot): Observable<boolean> {
return this.userService.isBoardMember().pipe(
map(data => {
if (data === false) {
this.router.navigate(['main']);
return false;
}
return true;
})
);
}
